Government raises petrol price by Rs1.82 while cutting diesel rate
The federal government increased petrol prices and reduced high-speed diesel rates effective Thursday under the daily pricing mechanism.
New fuel prices take effect today
Petrol will retail at Rs396.65 per litre after an increase of Rs1.82. High-speed diesel will cost Rs394.94 per litre following a reduction of 91 paisas. These revised rates apply from October 8 according to the Petroleum Division notification.
International market factors drive changes
The Oil and Gas Regulatory Authority linked the price revisions to fluctuations in global oil markets. Brent crude futures remained above $100 a barrel due to supply concerns and war-driven bottlenecks. The authority adjusted ex-depot prices based on Platts rates and other associated costs.
